Hi, I’m Nell McEoin, a research-focused art professional based in Berlin. I write exhibition research and in-depth texts for gallery presentations and fairs, coordinating content for multiple exhibitions across Berlin as well as international projects in London, Paris and Marfa. I combine meticulous archive work with clear storytelling to help audiences connect with artworks and institutions. Previously, I supported artist research and cataloguing as a Gallery Assistant, documenting artists’ practices, archiving images and texts, and proofreading booklets. I hold an MA in History from the University of Glasgow, with a Master’s Thesis on Environmental and Ecological History of Pre-Globalisation Europe, and I enjoy language study and volunteering in my spare time.
